It was in use in all 19th century revolutions, and up in the begining of 20th century, being a weapon that you could made yourself, and armed with this, you were to take the real weapons from the enemy!
In fact, some people in mountain villages carrying it to the local coffe shop up to 1960s.
Possibly it has a much older history and origin,since they all follow a specific pattern and shape.

Very interesting, thank you for the information!
